1014: Chapter 1015: The Enemy Must Take the Blame 1014: Chapter 1015: The Enemy Must Take the Blame “I know!”
Xu Yan withdrew and immediately made a phone call, convening a city government meeting.
He actually wanted to rectify Jincheng, but his own strength was simply not enough.
If it weren’t for the existence of Yama Hall, he might have been dealt with himself.
The people from the Hao League were really crazy.
That very day, Chairman Chen was removed from his position.
And it wasn’t just that simple, because of serious violations of discipline, he was even transferred to the judicial department for handling.
Chairman Chen had just wanted to inform the Chen Family that someone had targeted him, but before he could open his mouth, he was taken away.
This terrified Chairman Chen greatly.
Such efficiency, such speed.
Xu Yan seemed to be under a lot of pressure.
At the same time, at the Chen Family,
“Why has Xu Yan suddenly become so ruthless?
Didn’t he used to turn a blind eye to us?
What happened today, why did he deal with Chen Ran like that?”
The Chen Patriarch looked upset.
He had thought this time they could accomplish a great feat for the Hao League, and thereby elevate the position of the Chen Family within the League.
Who could have expected such an outcome?
The plan failed, and even the President Chen Ran was exposed and stripped of his position.
Suddenly, the entire Hao League panicked.
Unable to confront them directly, and realizing that utilizing power was useless, they felt the terror of the Xinmeng Group for the first time.
They felt the fear of the Xiao Family from Jiangnan.
In the factory office, Chen Yigeng and Xiao Chen finished drinking tea and Chen Yigeng smiled, “Xu Yan is quite efficient in handling matters, but it’s a good thing for the Xinmeng Group to enter Jincheng.
Do you want me to help?”
“No need!”
Xiao Chen shook his head, “Xinmeng Group has its own development strategy, they can’t get it too easily, otherwise, where would be their motivation?
Moreover, if you openly help me, then the Hao League wouldn’t dare target me or Xinmeng Group, and our fishing plan would fail.
Today, you are just here for an inspection, and you just happened to encounter the incident with Chen Ran, that’s all.”
“Understood.”
Chen Yigeng nodded.
Xiao Chen was indeed far-sighted, truly beyond comparison.
“Alright, you are also very busy, go back to work.
There must be many issues in Zhili Prefecture needing your attention.”
Xiao Chen smiled.
“With War God backing me, I am full of courage.”
Chen Yigeng smiled and turned to leave.
“Zhang Yan, escort Head Chen!”
Xiao Chen called out.
“Yes!”
Zhang Yan didn’t expect to be granted such an honor and quickly escorted Chen Yigeng to the back door and got into the car.
“Kid, following Mr.
Xiao, you won’t regret it.
Don’t ever think of doing anything crooked, otherwise, your family would be finished.”
After saying this, Chen Yigeng closed the car window, and the car drove away into the distance.
Yesterday’s Zhang Family mansion.
Today’s Xiao Residence.
Xiao Chen had already returned.
All one hundred Xiao Family Forbidden Guards were assembled.
Lone Wolf and Guo Kai stood in front, imposing and majestic.
“Sir, is there an operation tonight?”
Lone Wolf asked excitedly.
Since arriving in Jincheng, they had only been guarding the Xiao Residence and the factory, and hadn’t done much.
But from Xiao Chen’s demeanor, it seemed like there was an operation tonight.
Xiao Chen smiled and said, “Qiu Long of the Qiu Family, in order to get the Hao League to target us, didn’t hesitate to slander us for assassinating people from over a dozen Hao League Families.
Now, all these families have their eyes on us.
Since Qiu Long can slander us.
“We naturally can also treat our opponents with their own methods.”
On this list, there were sixteen Family Clans in total.
All of them were controlling clans of Xifeng Group, and most were Bronze Aristocrat Families and Silver Aristocrat Families.
“I need them all to suffer a heavy blow tonight.”
“But remember, we just need to teach them a lesson, not annihilate them.
I still need to use them to deal with our enemies.
Just keep it balanced!”
“Yes!”
Lone Wolf and Guo Kai were thrilled.
“Lone Wolf, take a team of fifty Imperial Guards and handle the Silver Aristocrat Family!
Guo Kai, you take a team of fifty Imperial Guards and handle the Bronze Aristocrat Family!
I’ll take a spin at the Nangong Family!”
Xiao Chen smiled.
Tonight, Jincheng would definitely be lively.
Once the factory had stabilized, his next plan was to take over the Xifeng Group.
And the Xifeng Group was a company invested in by all the clans of the Hao League.
As long as he pushed the enemies into the limelight.
Then the enemies would destroy themselves.
And naturally, Xifeng Group wouldn’t be able to withstand the pressure.
Of course, Xinmeng Group needed to be ready to occupy the same business involved with Xifeng Group.
He made a call to Jiang Meng, urging her to hasten strategic preparations.
Once the Xifeng Group fell, they were to quickly buy out the relevant businesses of Xifeng Group.
Other businesses might not matter.
But those related to Xinmeng Group had to be secured.
After that, it was just waiting for the night to fall.
The night came.
The Chen Family’s higher-ups all gathered together.
Many had hurried back from outside just for this, because something big was about to happen in Jincheng, and they needed to come back to figure out what to do.
Chen Ran’s trouble had signaled to them that the authorities were preparing to act against the Hao League.
That left them somewhat at a loss.
They were merely a Bronze Aristocrat Family.
Although formidable, they were nothing compared to the government authorities.
“The most urgent thing is to quickly disassociate from those grey industries.
We can’t let Xu Yan catch something to use against us.
The authorities won’t handle things like we do.
They always act by principles and the law.
As long as they can’t find any dirt on us, they can’t do anything.”
Patriarch Chen said.
“But Patriarch, do you know how much it would cost our Chen Family to give those up?
Can you really stand to do that?”
Someone spoke.
“What else can we do?
If we don’t give them up, we’re definitely going to run into trouble.
That idiot Chen Ran, why did he have to offend Chen Yigeng?”
Patriarch Chen was truly frustrated.
He had figured it out.
When Chen Ran was at the factory, Chen Yigeng had been inspecting it.
Resulting in Chen Ran’s subordinate directly insulting Chen Yigeng and even talking about investigating him and trying to get him thrown in jail.
That had led to the current situation, leaving everyone speechless.
“Always causing more problems than solutions, getting caught was deserved.
It’s just a pity that we’ve lost a man in the authorities like that.
I heard that Xu Yan appointed a new President, and he’s getting serious!”
Someone angrily said.
“Enough, what’s the use of talking about him now?
What I’m most afraid of is that now that our Chen Family is unlucky, someone might take advantage of this situation!”
“Yes, our enemies have always wanted to take back the Xifeng Group.
The last conference room assassination attempt, some speculated it was orchestrated by them.
But there was no evidence.
We still can’t be careless, though.
In such a situation, it’s better to err on the side of caution.”
“You guys think, is it possible that our enemies actually joined hands with the Xiao Family to create this scenario?
Otherwise, I really can’t see how a mere Xiao Family could be so powerful.
Wasn’t Head Xu previously very close to Qiu Qianren?”
Various wild speculations began.
They were terribly panicked.
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud bang came from outside.
It startled everyone.
